Em Whooooh whooooh whooooh whoo [Verse] Em And now I'm in town break it down thinkin' of makin' a new sound G Playin' a different show every night in front of a new crowd A That's you now ciao seems that life is great now C Em See me lose focus as I sing to you loud G I can't no I won't hush A I say the words that make you blush C D I'm gonna sing this now ■ Em G See I'm true my songs are where my heart is G I'm like glue I stick to other artists A I'm not you now that would be disastrous C D Let me sing and do my thing and move to greener pastures Em See I'm real I do it all it's all me G G7 I'm not fake don't ever call me lazy A I won't stay put give me the chance to be free F Em Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate ■ [Chorus] G You need me man I ■ don't need you A You need me man I don't need you C You need me man I don't need you D Em You need me man I don't need you G You need me man I don't need you A7 You need me man I don't need you C You need me man I don't need you at all D You need me [Verse] Em G7 I sing and write my own tune and I write my own verse hell G7 Don't need another wordsmith to make my tunes sell G G7 Call yourself a singerwriter you're just bluffin' C Em Your name's on the credits and you didn't write nothin' G I sing fast I know that all my shit's cool G I will blast and I didn't go to Brit school A I came fast with the way I act right C I can't last if I'm smokin' on a crack pipe G Em7 And I won't be a product of my genre G G7 My mind will always be stronger than my songs are A Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya C Em Always read the stories that you hear in Wikipedia Em Musically I'm demonstratin' G G7 When I perform live feels like I am meditatin' A Times at the enterprise when some fella filmed me C Young singer writer like a Gabriella Cilmi Em You need me man I don't need ■ you [Chorus] G You need me man I don't need you A7 A You need me man I don't need you C You need me man I don't need you D Em You need me man I

abuse it and get affected infected with the who's who of music C Who did it who is it who's in it or what the hell does it matter D Em Chitter chatter don't matter what a yidder yidder yadder don't matter to me G All I want is a bit of dignity in me to battle this industry freely A C To be me in this seedy needy world can you hear me D So I keep singin' that Em When I first started this rappin' shit I felt pressure from haters G Became invaded with sadists and just developed a hater radar A And made for the stars kept my grind in the dark C D And then appeared with a remedy kickin' rhymes with a melody Em Hennesey shots and all these fools on the block G Who said you gotta be a gangster now to raise to the top A C D Em Just a normal casual usual everyday type of guy with ■ my head in the sky [Chorus] Em Ready to die B7 Ed Sheeran Alone Star B7 Em Comin' out here freestylin' with the guitar Em 'cause I've forgotten the lyrics of this bit right here E7 So I freestyle off the top of

you know I got to have it A 'cause if I don't have it in my pocket I'm gonna panic C 'cause like I said Where I come from weed smokin' is a habit D Em Yup we'll do da burn up the place up in the hood G One of them things I have inherited like a ghetto man should A Thing is smoking weed yes it makes me feel good C D But a highgrade sensimilla yes it makes me feel Em But me is a man ah talk about

little bit funky A C Ugh and I forget about the whole week C You forget about the whole week the whole weekend Em7 Just forget about everything G7 'cause it's Sunday and we're all gonna get drunk after this A And have a very very good time and I'm not stressed anymore C We're just letting it unwind Em I wanna split the room in in the middle here [Verse] Em Who's up for that G Not not not literally Bm7 Ya don't have to literally divide C It's all good ■ all good Em Peace and love peace and love and harmony Em7 What was I gonna say A This side up there are you with me ■ C This side up

seem to find myself talking to the powers that be A Awakin' the shade and shadowed under towering trees C Admirin' the scene inhalin' fumes of flowers that breathe C Jet lagged eyes are beggin' for an hour to sleep D G7 Although my bloodshot whites and irises they never find any A Clock stops at times where the sunshine can blind many C Although my eyes are heavy they won't be closin' soon Em 'cause I heard that time waits for nobody I suppose it's true G7 We make corrosive tunes with acid tabs and vocal booths A To see the flashin' lights at photo shoots we make our motive moves C I say whatever I feel to vent a rhyme D So I can still invent the lines and stay close to the friends of mine Em G7 'cause real recognise real is what my father says D A And I'll be stickin' to this phrase until I pass away C Overworkin' no sleep is just another way to die slow Em But I'll just keep goin' strong and never let my eyes close Em You need me I don't need you G A You need me man I don't need you A You need me man C I got my friend very good friend Random Impulse Em G He's gonna come up and he's gonna spit a few bars on the beat A Everyone give it up for Random Impulse C Em Em7 G7 Yo In this game I am my own damn man no restriction post or boundaries A7 Spoutin' heat hungry and my circle always round to eat A C Crossin' circles countin' thousands at a thousand feet G Countin' sheep and he's sound asleep Em Em7 G Summoned from the deep now I float to sink my boat you'll need one thousand fleets A Walk on any beat and stomp it like one thousand feet C Talk is cheap so I could treat you to my words for free D Em Now that I'm out man I ain't playin' like I hurt my knee Em It's common courtesy I left you for a minute G A Now I'm back and packin' punches like I'm Popeye poppin' spinach C Eatin' every course lunch I ain't forgotten dinners D Em Play guitars as well as bars so you ain't rockin' with beginners G Sorry time's tickin' I can't mess with upandcomers G National lottery business only winners have my numbers A Man I'm nothin' like you fronters show you how it is C D I can't really do nothin' for you less you got somethin' to give Ed [Chorus] Bm G 'cause ■ you need me man I don't need you A You need me man my eyes are red C You need me man I don't need you D Em You need me man my eyes are red G And you need me I don't need you A You need me man my eyes are red C You need me man I don't need you C You need me [Verse] D G D I'll keep my last name forever keep the genre pretty basic D Gonna be breakin' into other peoples tunes when I chase it D And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift D Step into another rappers shoes usin' new laces Em Em7 Sellin' CD's from my rucksack aimin' for the papers G Sellin' CD's from my rucksack aimin' for the majors A Nationwide tour with just jack still had to get the bus back C D Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache Em7 I hit back when the pen hurts me G G7 I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee A I'm still the same as a year ago C D But more people hear me though accordin' to the MySpace and YouTube videos G Always doin' shows if I'm not I'm in the studio G Truly broke never growin' up call me Ruffio A Melody music maker readin' all the papers C D They say I'm up and comin' like I'm fuckin' in an elevator [Outro] G Later Thank you G Thank you so much See you soon [End]
